The Norfolk, Virginia [[graticule]] is at [http://irc.peeron.com/xkcd/map/map.html?lat=36&long=-76&zoom=8 latitude 36, longitude -76]. It includes all of Hampton Roads, except for the Ocean Front and Back Bay, as well as the Elizabeth City area. Perhaps one of the more interesting features of this graticule is that its dead center contains The Great Dismal Swamp. It also actually holds the majority of the City of Virginia Beach, despite its graticule being to the right.
